Edith Stein: Seeker of Truth is the story of a 20th century saint, a German-Jewish philosopher who converted to Catholicism, became a Carmelite nun, and was eventually martyred in Auschwitz. Her life story is that of a scholar searching for ultimate truth, about which John Paul II said in his homily at her canonization “…she finally discovered truth has a name, it is Jesus Christ.” This challenging and engaging study is perfect for the modern woman who shares Stein’s longing for the uncompromising truth found in the beauty of Church teaching.
